The Mawson Arms black plaque

The Mawson Arms The Fox And Hounds Brewing on this site can be traced back over 350 years. The Mawson Arms takes its name from the Mawson family who owned the brewery between 1699 and 1748. The Mawson Arms opened in 1759. Prior to this, this was the home to the 18th century poet Alexander Pope, who

lived here with his parents between 1716 - 1719. At one point, two pubs stood on the site, hence the reason the pub still has two names today. — Mawson Lane, Chiswick
